Additional Travel Information

If you have business in Chicago, you might prefer to fly into Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW), as it's closer to the downtown core of the city than O’Hare, and far less busy. The same is true for Chicago Midway International Airport rental cars, and for the best deals on quality airport rental cars, discerning travelers to Chicago choose Avis Car Rental for the highest levels of professionalism and quality.

Once you land and grab your luggage, exit the terminal through the doors near carousel #3 and wait for the MDW rental car shuttle bus that will take you to the Avis location. The bus runs 24/7 so you’ll be good to go no matter when you land.

Like the O’Hare location, Avis is pleased to offer a range of Chicago airport car rentals. You could opt for a compact MDW car rental if you’re planning on squeezing into tight city spots, a full-size or luxury car if you’re heading to meetings, or an SUV from the Signature Series if you really want to show people you’ve arrived. And if you’re in a hurry to get going, you can accelerate your travel experience with Avis Preferred, a complimentary membership that allows you to skip the line and go straight to your car.

Midway may be the second airport in the “second city,” but like Avis, it’s the first choice for business travelers.
